A former guest on CTV News Calgary back in July took home a pretty significant musical honour Thursday night.
It was another notch in the musical belt for the singer-songwriter. Benedict released new music in July, and is getting ready to go on tour next month, with a stop in Calgary on Nov. 1 at Bella Concert Hall.
Benedict's musical success was foreshadowed somewhat in 2016 when Benedict and her little sister Makenna were called onstage and sang at a Keith Urban concert in Edmonton, after Urban noticed the 14-year-old Hailey and 12-year-old Makenna's guitars that their mother had made. "He saw the guitars and he said, 'I see those guitars, why don't we bring them up?' I was like 'What, what?', Hailey said.That prompted Urban to ask Hailey to play a song she had written called "Clean Slate."With files from Diego Romero and Angela Jung.
